Have not even had a chance to even remove mine from the box yet let alone install it. So just a fitment test so far?

Yep, just fitting so far. I like the feel of the tank when sitting on the bike. I need to decide where/how to mount the fuel pump. Mounting it to the frame of the bike makes sense and would make tank removal easier. Especially with the new fuel taps!

Yardstick: Your garage looks a lot like mine with an SE and a 990R penned up in there!

What's going on with your center stand?

There's a 530 on the other side. The pics of the tank caps were taken on the 530's seat.

The SE's center stand came off my old 2005.5 950 Adv S that had the travel extended 245mm to 265mm. The Adv got a new, long center stand and the SE got the hand-me-down. The shorter center stand on the SE is stable enough to park it but both wheels still contact the ground. It needs a boost for cleaning/lubing the chain or changing the tire.

I just sold 2 530s last year and bought 2 500s to replace them!

I figgered the center stand was probably off a shorter Adv, but was curious if perhaps you'd lengthened the travel. Cheers!

The instructions are really good. There are mounting points on the tank in the stock location too. I'm just thinking about doing something different.

It's not the best picture, but it's the only one I have on my network here in the office. Here's where and how I mounted mine:

It's located in the exact spot as the stock pump, only mounted to a custom bracket that supports my radiator. Of course mine's fuel injected, but the pump sizes are pretty similar. As you can see, the pump is rubber mounted so I don't have to listen to it as I ride...

I'm appreciating your SE's setup more and more. I would like EFI (love it on the 990!) and I have some pretty serious dings in the front of my skid plate since it sticks out so far because that oil tank. One of these days... Maybe.

The stock pump should work in any orientation. They are mounted horizontal on the 950 Adventures. I'll see what I can come up with later today.
